Ingredients
- 2 cups ripe cantaloupe, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plain yogurt
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp fresh lime or lemon juice
- 2–4 tbsp water or milk (optional, to adjust consistency)
Instructions
- Cut cantaloupe in half, remove seeds, and cube the flesh.

Notes
- Use frozen cantaloupe instead of ice for a creamier texture.
- Substitute yogurt with coconut milk, almond milk, or silken tofu for a dairy-free version.
